If they take down Newt next, it won't take but a a few days to take down Perry. Heck, you don't even need the MSM to take down Perry, he did it all by himself.
If Romney wasn't in this race, Newt's support right now would be under 4%. The only reason he is polling as high as he is is because of Romney.
It's time for us to get over our fear of Romney and start supporting a conservative candidate instead. In a two-way race, even Ron Paul or John Huntsman would beat Mitt for the nomination.
